Day Three Olympics

We started out today taking a bus from downtown Vancouver to Whistler for the luge competition. The day looked sunny when we arrived but an hour later when we were ready to take the gondola up the mountain to the Sliding Center it was pouring rain. Then shortly after the competition started the rain stopped and the sun came out again. So far we have not had any delays getting through security at any of the venues. They call that "mag and bag" here! Even getting down the mountain on the gondola was going really quickly. As our car came into the station at the bottom it seemed to jump the cable and was dragging on the ground and the car behind crashed into our car! No one was seriously hurt and they had the gondola running again in just a few minutes.
